Three people have died in Western Australia when their vehicles were engulfed in a bush fire.
The road they were driving on had been closed several times over the weekend because of bush fires and had just been re-opened. Five other vehicles were burned, but their drivers managed to escape the flames.
Since Friday, fires have destroyed more than 25,000 acres of land in a national park. Many parts of Australia are experiencing the worst drought in recorded history.
